The Milan papers of last week
gave an account of the bank rob-
berry which occurred at that place
sometime between Saturday after
noon of May 14th and the follow
ing Monday morning. The reports
state that, the bank was closed
about 5 o'clock and the safe
properly locked by the cashier.
Monday morning the bank was
found short twelve thousand five
hundred and ninety-nine dollars,
but, the safe and time lock were
in perfect order and had not been
tempered with. AS the safe and
time lock were in perfect order
and had not been tempered with,
the money must have escaped
through back door. The money
will be made good by an assess
ment of the stock holders and the
loss will have no effect whatever
on the bank.
Since writing the above we
learn from the Milan Republican,
that the president of the Bank
L. T. Hatfield, took the money.
He skipped OUT but has been
caught and will be returned to
Milan for trial.
